Applying the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning beyond the Individual Classroom (WEB PDF) von Jennifer C. Friberg

When the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) emerged it often concentrated on individual faculty practice in one classroom, but it is now increasingly common to find work in SoTL focused more broadly. This volume features examples of SoTL research conducted in, and applied to, a variety of contexts and disciplines, offering a theoretical framework for an expanded vision of SoTL that moves beyond the individual classroom.

When the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) emerged, it often concentrated on individual faculty practice in one classroom; it is now, however, increasingly common to find work in SoTL focused more broadly. SoTL studies may engage with a cluster of courses, a program, a particular population of students, a pedagogical approach, or a fieldall of which are represented in the essays collected here by authors from a diverse array of institutions and nations. This volume features examples of SoTL research conducted in, and applied to, a variety of contexts and disciplines, offering a theoretical framework for an expanded vision of SoTLone that moves beyond the individual classroom.
